An engine room for construction equipment is provided, which can minimize emission of noise generated in an engine room due to driving of an engine and a ventilating fan to an outside of the engine room by absorbing the noise through a noise trap, and can improve the cooling performance of corresponding components by smoothing inhalation / discharge of an external air to / from the airtight engine room. The engine room for construction equipment includes a radiator cooling water for cooling the engine, a muffler discharging an exhaust gas from an engine to the atmosphere, a first noise trap installed in an inlet port to absorb noise generated in the engine room and emitted to an outside, a second noise trap installed in an outlet port to absorb the noise generated in the engine room and emitted to the outside, a radiator fan inhaling the external air through the first noise trap and making the inhaled external air pass through the radiator and the circumference of the engine, a discharge fan discharging the air in the engine room to the outside through the second noise trap, and an outer wall forming an airtight space for accommodating therein the engine, the muffler, the radiator fan, the hydraulic pump, and the discharge fan that generate the noise.

An auxiliary dust collection system can be interposed between a sander or other dust producing tool and a vacuum source, e.g., shop vacuum. This auxiliary system has a cyclonic separator connected by a flexible hose to the tool and by another hose to the vacuum source. The cone of the separator is mounted onto the lid of a drum into which the dust precipitates. For a tool that has its own blower, the vacuum source can be omitted, and the air leaving the outlet duct of the separator can be filtered and returned to the ambient. A drop in silencer formed of a sleeve or tube of acoustic foam can be positioned into the inlet side of a filter cartridge following a cyclonic separator. The silencer absorbs a significant fraction of the process noise.

The present invention relates to a silencer for reducing muzzle blast and noise of firearms or similar devices. The present silencer has a hollow cylindrical or other shape casing comprising front and rear end caps and an opening aligned along a longitudinal axis defining a passage for a projectile and propellant gases to emerge from the muzzle opening. A plurality of serially placed baffles of symmetrical or slanted orientation and intervening coaxial spacers are positioned within the casing and define a multitude of chambers among the baffles, spacers, and outer housing. The baffles shear propellant gases away from the projectile path and through openings or ports into additional chambers formed between the spacers and outer housing. The arrangement of baffles and spacers provides flow-impeding paths, dispersion, and controlled expansion of gases and lowers gas temperature to reduce audible noise and observable signature of the muzzle blast.

A muffler with a housing having an inlet, an outlet, and at least one chamber is provided with a cleaning member that is disposed in the chamber. The cleaning member is movable relative to the housing.

An exhaust system for a vehicle, such as a motorcycle or other straddle-type vehicle, that achieves miniaturization while providing advantageous noise reduction characteristics. The exhaust system is associated with an engine of a vehicle and includes an exhaust pipe connected to the engine and a silencer. A conical member is positioned within the silencer and includes an upstream end and a downstream end. At least a portion of a side wall of the conical member includes a plurality of through-holes. The conical member is oriented such that a radial dimension of the conical member increases in a direction from the upstream end to the downstream end.
